My streak of good fortune continues with a third sale in quick succession!
The story:Â “The Quest Unusual”, a story about a strange… knight?
The magazine:Â Daily Science Fiction.
I’m particularly excited about this one, since Frank Dutkiewicz and his reviewer cronies have worked very hard to provide reviews of Daily Science Fiction for Diabolical Plots. I’m looking forward to being involved on the fiction side.
Good news! Another new sale, thus reaffirming my irrational superstition that my sales always come in pairs. This time the story is “The Infinite Onion”, an improbable SF story about a research company that is trying to find new ways to profit from portals to parallel worlds. The venue is AE Canadian Science Fiction Review. Huzzah! I am excited! That is all. 🙂 -David Steffen
Congratulations, David! Am I reading right–that’s two acceptances in just over a week? Wow! Keep doing whatever it is you’re doing. 🙂
Yes, 2 in about a week, 3 in a month! It has been a good time.
As far as what I’m doing, I’m doing what I always do, just keeping each story in circulation as long as I can. None of these three are shiny new stories; they just all happened to find editors who like the style and content at about the same time. It’s just luck of the draw, combined with lots and lots of perseverence. 🙂
Congrats on this, and your Honorable Mention for WotF!
